    Asher is pertaining to the game of beer pong saying he can shoot
    like AI and the line following..

    "Allen Iver-saaahn.. Hakeem Olajuwaaahhn -
    Don't even bounce.. not in my house"

    So the Dream reference (i believe) was insinuating that he'd block a beer pong attempt if you attempted to bounce

    "Pistol in my reach, man - Still in Long Beach, man/
    Hoping if my grind don't help me ger out? My speech can/
    I've been in the streets longer than Yao Ming's wingspan/
    You can be MTV, I'll be C-Span/"

    - Crooked-I
    featured on Joell Ortiz's Slaughterhouse Remix of "Move On"

    ..There's actually a ton of Rocket references, especially in the last few years, I just can't remember them at all right now :(



    lol But If you just like hearing Rocket references in the form of rap, I constantly representing if ever writing/recording

    "I'm Illy-er" (@ 02:05)
    http://www.tinyurl.com/DMDweek8
    "..And I
    Put my Yao jersey on when I hit the stage
    Cause I'ma Rock it (Rocket), find me Rockin that **** for days"


    And here's a track that's not completed (I'm waiting on my man to finish recording his verse) but I have a good few bars incorporating a play on words with The rockets or basketball in general

    "Never Say Never" (@ 01:35)
    http://www.zshare.net/audio/565306350ad0fb89/
    "...........So tell me why you jockin meeee though?
    You just lookin akward like Chuck Hayes shootin a free throw
    ...And now the players startin to see how
    I am David Stern, the way I'm runnin the league now
    Set the bar higher than Yao grabbin a rebound
    Already MVP, you see, I'm chasin for the ring now
    ..........but I don't need a champion-ship
    To rough a rapper up like a champion, b****"

    "Cannon Flow" (@ 00:27)
    http://www.zshare.net/audio/565309597da16503/
    "You hate it --- When a playa like me
    Is the O-N-E and I rise above thee
    Competition like I'm T-M-A to the C
    People look up to me (literally) I'm 6'3''


    Other punchlines I've used referencing the Rockets that I can remember..

    "My Credit Card gets Charged like Battier"

    "I ain't your average rapper talkin' bout poppin trunk
    Cause, I'm above them actors like T-Mac in a dunk"



    I'll post the songs/lyrics from other rappers once they all come to me

    Ya, that's what I got from it too.

    Speaking of Asher Roth... The dude is just nasty. I would recommend taking a listen to his newest mixtape, "The Greenhouse Effect". His first true album drops in April.

    I'm pretty sure the recent song by Nelly -- "Just a Dream" -- is just an extended ode to Hakeem.

    ;)

    In all seriousness though, I would love to see an Olajuwon mix-tape with this song.
